Some good news and other thoughts...

Dec 10, 2006 20:52


Long ago I had bought a book on half.com and the guy I bought it from stiffed me (and, apparently, a whole bunch of other people) just got an email saying my claim went through, and they're going to refund my money.  Took a couple of months, but still, I'm tight on cash, so having that back will be a boon for me.

Hmmm.. looking over my journal layout.. I just changed it recenty, still trying to decide if I like all the elements of it.  What I find real interesting is on the left said it has ALL the tags I've used for my journals.  A lot of them are in a font that's just WAY too small, IMHO, but, neatly enough, some of the words are larger (presumably because I've used those tags more and more often.)

Not surprisingly "depression" is one of the tags in a larger font.

So, anyway, to all of you who read these entries regular (all three of you) I do have to say thanks.  I mean, I know these aren't always the easiest things to wade through, especially on weeks when my entries pretty much read, "blah, blah, blah, feeling angry, blah, blah, blah, feeling really depressed, blah, blah, blah, contemplating suicide."  etc.

Course, it is MY journal, and the main I write is to get my feelings down, to try and sort them out, so I can't change just to increase my subscription rates, so to speak.  But still, to those who have hung in there and still offer the occasionally supportive comment, I thank you.

Ahh crap!  Worked a lot this weekend (nine hour shift on Saturday, eight hours on Sunday) and now, once again, my ankels are killing me.  What's particularly crazy is I sit down for a bit, everything seems okay, then I get back up and the pain starts stabbing me.  Guess I need to break out my icebag again.

Hmm.. feeling annoyed now, don't really care where a previous conversation I had with someone is went.  Ever try to talk to someone about something, and they keep pretty much trying to turn the conversation to one inane point you don't really care about?  Like, example, you're trying to tell them who you're upset cause your car isn't running very well and they keep trying to tell you how great it'd be if you rode a bike everywhere?

Hmm.. well, that's a shitty example... never mind.

Let's see.. damn, it's 8:40...I hate this... been feeling drousy and out of it since I got home from work, and I didn't really do much except lounge around and read a bit.. Feel like, I dunno.. time went back too damn fast and I didn't do anything with it.

Ahh hell, it's finals week.. have a few finals to take and work of course, but I'll have a bit more time to rewind and relax.  Going to try and get some creative projects done.  Been meaning, for instance, to sort through and edit a lot of pictures I took recently of a Christmas parade that occured a few weeks ago in town.  It was kind of weird, taking pictures and stuff.  I mean, I was just doing on my own, thinking I could get some interesting.  God only knows what the people were thinking, seeing this tall, weird fellow snapping shots here and there.

I mainly stuck to the main floats and stuff, although I did get a few shoots of some of the studenst from various schools and whatnot.  A lot of the young kids were wearing cute customes.  Wanted to get a few of them in one and one shots, but I didn't think it'd be a good idea to go around snapping pictures of kids I'm not related to, so I kept my distance.

I don't know, it felt kind of neat, being a part of something, you know?  But on the other it felt a bit lonely, like here I am taking pictures of all these people I don't even know, events I'm not really familiar with, as though I'm actually a part of their group or something...

Hmm.. maybe the local town website would like some of them to put up.  When I went by there a few months back, they were taking submissions from anyone who visited the website.  They even put up a picture of a fountan at the local park I'd taken a summer or two back.  Have to look into that again...

Starting to yawn, guess I'd better head out...
